LUMINOR SUBMERSIBLE 1950 CARBOTECHTM 3 DAYS AUTOMATIC PRICE: 15700 EURO (ROUGHLY $22,000 AUD)

Say hello to the watch that Paneristi will be raving about this year. The Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 Carbotech 3 Days  Automatic PAM (PAM00616). For a brand that trades so heavily on their history, it’s great to see them embrace new materials like ceramic – and now Carbon. But rather than use carbon fibre like every other brand out there Panerai have developed Carbotech – a bonded carbon material never before used in watches. All we know is that it looks awesome (especially with the cream lume plots and blue highlights), and that no watch will look the same.

More pictures and details to come.
